I’m just super fucking bitter that once the flint water crisis got it’s 15 minutes of fame people stopped giving a shit. The water is still poisoned, people! Donations have plummeted and people have been forced back into drinking and bathing with the water! The medical effects of this are astounding, cases of legionnaires disease have skyrocketed, people are having seizures, people are having weird rashes break out over their body, people (including me!) are having their blood poisoned, and it’s not just lead! it’s coliform bacteria! it’s THMs! it’s all in the water and it gets into the bloodstream and breaks down blood vessels, causing bruising and petechiae and internal bleeding and no one gives a shit anymore and it’s only gotten worse like how many people are going to have to die until people realize this is still a problem
I'm loosing it
i haven’t posted my art in awhile because i haven’t had any motivation to draw but ya girl is joining another dnd campaign so that means another character drawing. Meet Velphi ♡︎
Ideas for a cozy witchy morning! Perfect for secretive witches ✨
Open your windows/curtains and say goodmorning to the sun or admire it and the earth
Write down any dreams you had if you wish to interpret them
Hold any of your crystals, tarot cards, etc to make them feel loved and to get any wonderful energy
If you have a safe space you may pull a tarot card or meditate
Close your eyes in front of a bookshelf, grab a book and open to a random page. Without looking, slide your finger to any spot on the page and read the sentence. Ponder the sentence and apply it to yourself (simple method of divination)
Read your horoscope for the day (there is plenty of apps and websites)
Water any plants or feed any animals in the house and give them some love
Go for a walk if time allows, clear your mind and breathe in fresh, clean energy to uplift you
Light a candle, using any colour/scent that will suit your day
If you drink coffee, add a dash of cinnamon to it or the grinds
If you drink tea, stir it clockwise to promote or counter clockwise to banish
Make breakfast and add special spices to it for certain things
Worship/leave an offering to a deity or perhaps earth itself
If you wear makeup, draw sigils with the foundation or wear a certain colour of lipstick/eyeshadow for its properties
Remind yourself that you are beautiful, and a badass witch ❤️

What coffee is your favorite?
I’m basic and I’m a sucker for those nice fall flavors especially pumpkin. Lately I’ve been taking plain ole coffee grounds and adding cinnamon and nutmeg to them, oh my it’s delicious!
slightly adapted from samra haksever, author of mama moon’s book of magic, but is mostly the same. includes quotes from her book in the steps for how to create the jar
not my gif
this spell jar is best crafted on a Sunday, when you can channel the energy of the day, and look back on your achievements of the past week.
✿ ✿ ✿ ✿ ✿ ✿
7 small strips of paper
a pen
a mason jar, or a jar of similar size
2-3 cinnamon sticks
a pinch of patchouli, but i used rosemary
a magnet or lodestone crystal
orange or white wax (optional)
the cinnamon brings your happiness blessings, and the magnet and patchouli draw many more of these good things to you.
✿ ✿ ✿ ✿ ✿ ✿
“on each piece of paper, write down something that has made you happy over the past week; this is the time to celebrate anything and everything, from seeing a cute dog in the park and treating yourself to a cup of coffee on your commute, to taking an afternoon nap.
“fold the papers up, put them in the jar with the cinnamon sticks, patchouli/rosemary and magnet, then place the jar on a windowsill that gets plenty of sunlight.”
“optional, seal with orange or white wax. if you decide not to seal the jar, add to it as and when, or even try to make it a Sunday ritual.”
today we’re gonna be discussing veiling. veiling is the act of covering your hair/head either partially or fully. this could be anything from wearing a bandana to wearing a full coverage headscarf.
there are many reasons why a pagan or witch may participate in veiling, here are a few:
as a reminder of a connection with a deity (usually deities such as hestia but it can be any deity)
as an offering or devotional act to a deity
as a reminder of what is above us
to cover or protect the crown chakra
to help with grounding
for shielding (this is often used by empaths)
to focus power or focus the mind
to signify adulthood/womanhood (!! this does not mean that men or nonbinary people can’t veil!! i’m nonbinary and i veil a lot)
as a practise of modesty
because it brings comfort to a person
in old traditions, a witches hair is said to be a measure of their power so people cover their hair in order to protect it
often people veil during rituals as it helps them get in the right mindset
i hope you guys found this helpful!! if you know of any other reasons to veil let me know but these are probably the most common ones used.
